I know that intel makes a 2-chip set which will give you a *complete* 
2400 baud hayes compatable modem (all you need is an interface to the 
telco lines, and power supply, and RS232 drivers). Reasonably priced, 
you could probably build you own modem with these chips for around 
$100 or so.

Don't know the chip designation though. I *have* seen the data sheets though-
impressive chip set for what it does!
